"The essential part of the federal reclamation policy of the future,” said Mr. Work, “Is a program of land Settlement and developments. Un less settlers are attracted to the pro jects and are kble to remain on them, there lg no reason for build ing them, and the government will not be reimbursed for their costa. The government constructs .Irriga tion projects, but It cannot draft settlers. "One solution of the settlement problem lg co-operation between the federal government and the states in which the projects are located, the state to assume the responsibil ity of settlement.
